Text description provided by the architects. From the start, a sinuous, lightweight, non-intrusive steel structure was conceptualized, supporting a slatted timber deck, snaking its way into, through and over the ever-changing tree canopy.  A structural skeleton, with ribs and a spine, in galvanized steel, painted to attract moss and growth, supported on slender steel columns intertwined with creepers.
